Research on Temperature Prediction of Passion Fruit Planting Bases in Southwest Fujian Province
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This article utilized hourly temperature, humidity, pressure and wind speed data from passion fruit meteorological observation stations in three southwestern cities of Fujian Province (Longyan, Sanming, Zhangzhou) from 2020 to 2022, as well as national ground conventional meteorological observation stations. BP neural network and stepwise regression method were applied to construct temperature prediction models for the passion fruit planting bases. The results showed that: (1) The simulation effect of the passion fruit station temperature prediction model based on BP neural network (referred to as BP model) was better than that of the model based on stepwise regression method (referred to as regression model). The average absolute error (MSE) of BP model (2.75–3.42 °C) was smaller than that of regression model (3.32–3.94 °C). (2) For the simulation results of daily temperature changes in the passion fruit station, the difference in hourly average temperature between the BP model predictions (regression model predictions) and observed temperatures at passion fruit station was −4.1–4.4 °C (−6.0–10.2 °C). The BP model showed a daily temperature trend that was closer to the measured values; (3) For the simulation results of high and low temperatures in the passion fruit station, the BP neural network model (regression model) showed a prediction error range of −5.6 °C to 5.2 °C compared to observed temperatures, while the stepwise regression model’s error range was −4.1 °C to 8.8 °C. The BP model’s predicted temperature trend was closer to the measured values. (4) Both models have significant shortcomings in the prediction of high-temperature individual cases and hourly averages, with relatively large errors (generally exceeding 3 °C), especially during the period from 10 to 16 o’clock. The future version needs to be optimized.
